Brief description
Reliable, adaptable, careful, thrifty, self-confident, sensitive, understanding. Their motto: I will survive!
Strengths
Pines exactly know what they want. They stand on solid ground and they do not build castles in the air. Above all they need a safe environment basis. Their aim is to organize their life sensibly, they want to make it clear and they try to avoid uncertainties. Pines are aware of their responsibility. They are diligent, assiduous, hardworking and their thinking is practical. They sharply observe, they perceive even the slightest details and they adapt smartly. They think before they act, they are careful and thrifty. They have great organizational skills.
Weak points
If the thoroughness and accuracy of Pines turns into pedantry they can provoke a fierce reaction in the others. Their sensitivity can sometimes reverse into over-refinement. They are not keen on relax, humour or delight. Pines avoid adventures and risk which results in a sad, ordinary live and boredom. At the same time they live in a fear that they will miss something because of their strong reason. Another problem is when they are about to decide on something. It takes them a long time to decide – they always want to do what is right and they take their time before they make the final decision.
What should Pines be careful about?
Reason, life planning and care can sometimes go overboard. If you have the ability to avoid mental stress you can afford a little more joy in life – for God´s sake! You do not have to be always available! Particularly in love it is not advisable to limit yourselves only to survival strategies. There are not so many partners who could deal with such an attitude. For such emotional coldness Pines sometimes obtain either a puzzled smile or rather considerable annoyance. Goethe´s Faust, for example, knew that life governed by pure reason soon encounters with clear limits. And now a question arises: Is that really everything?
And as Pines are usually true experts on gathering material goods, it should not be a problem for them to set something aside (something seemingly useless and unnecessary) and occasionally enjoy themselves.
But despit all criticism – Pines managed to break through which is an evidence that their lifestyle works well. However, a little more joy would not do harm to anybody, would it?
